It's been a while

It's been a while. I have grown quite attached of this place, but it's very difficult to share personal stuff on blogspot. I used to use livejournal before this so I kind of miss the liberation that it's giving me to set the privacy of each post individually.

I also really missed reading on people's life (so nosy, hahaha) on livejournal. Nowadays everyone is on tumblr, twitter, facebook... microblogging is such a big thing that nobody really bothered to put down their thoughts and days anymore. I guess it's much more practical, and I too, use twitter. But somehow I just really miss blogwalking. I hope that everyone will get back to it eventually...

Anyway I tried to set up a dreamwidth account and imported some stuff from my older livejournal there. The community in dreamwidth is much smaller and rather inactive, but by doing this I am hoping to be able to, sort of, start a new life there.

If you want to see me on dreamwidth you can go to radiuju. Feel free to add me there, I will most likely follow anyone back because I really like reading other people's thoughts. Hahaha. Most of my posts are locked, though (friends-only) so hopefully you would join in the community! :)

Hopefully one day dreamwidth would allow us to cross-post between HTML platforms. That would really make things easier. Haha.

Not that much because I've been quite occupied...
Sometimes even though I draw everyday, I don't really publish all of them.

"Deliberate practice, by its nature, must be hard.

When you want to get good at something, how you spend your time practicing is far more important than the amount of time you spend. … Regular practice simply isn’t enough. To improve, we must watch ourselves fail, and learn from our mistakes."

“We're so self-important. So arrogant. Everybody's going to save something now. Save the trees, save the bees, save the whales, save the snails. And the supreme arrogance? Save the planet! Are these people kidding? Save the planet? We don't even know how to take care of ourselves; we haven't learned how to care for one another. We're gonna save the fuckin' planet? . . . And, by the way, there's nothing wrong with the planet in the first place. The planet is fine. The people are fucked! Compared with the people, the planet is doin' great. It's been here over four billion years . . . The planet isn't goin' anywhere, folks. We are! We're goin' away. Pack your shit, we're goin' away. And we won't leave much of a trace. Thank God for that. Nothing left. Maybe a little Styrofoam. The planet will be here, and we'll be gone. Another failed mutation; another closed-end biological mistake.”

How do I calm the fuck down.
